When the suffix begins with a consonant, it is labeled as a consonant suffix. When a suffix begins with a vowel, it is labeled as a vowel suffix. Knowing this helps us reliably spell the new word when adding a suffix.
When adding a vowel suffix to a base/root word that ends in silent e, DROP the e and attach the suffix.
